breast feeding makes me absolutely miserable
I can't eat what i want, I can't take my anxiety medication, I constantly have to feed her. It's too much. I feel completely overwhelmed by my anxiety from not being able to clean bc I'm constantly feeding her. Everything feels disorganized. I don't feel connected to my child at all while breastfeeding ... there's no bonding/ connection on my part while feeding her and I'm more frustrated than anything else. I resent my husband because the only reason I do it is to make him happy. She latches fine, if I try to pump I end up having to just feed it to her right away bc I don't produce enough to have extra. Right now I'm hiding in my bedroom because Im just so miserable from the whole thing. I would be so much more happy if I could just formula feed her.
Anyone else feel this way?
